Abstract
An aqueous cleaning composition, which may be suitable for use in cleaning hard surfaces, is described. The aqueous cleaning composition includes an ionic liquid, a surfactant, a quaternary ammonium antimicrobial surfactant, and a substantial amount of water. The ionic liquid includes an N-alkyl-N,N-bis(polyethoxyethanol)-N-aliphatic ammonium salt. Other than an optional fragrance component, the cleaning composition typically is substantially free of volatile organic compounds. The cleaning compositions may also include a chelating agent, such as an aminopolycarboxylate chelating agent.
